Name: Rick
Age: 54
I am a found and invented sound/live looping/abstract electronica/experimental artist with a strong minimalistic visual bent.

I have been a musician all my life and only recently have started to experiment with lo fi digital video and photography.

I grow increasingly tired of all the of MTV styled quick editing, visual maximalism that seems to dominate the media and films these days.

Lately I have been taking a series of 30 second videos that are incredibly lo fi
of subjects that are barely moving.

I hope to be incoroporating these into my live looping performances.

I have toured as a headliner in 12 countries in the past 3 years of my life as Loop.pooL
(Found Sound/Live Looping), nO thiN-g (dark ambient/noise/experimental) and UltraViolette (goth)

I live in Santa Cruz California with my wife who is an amazing musical artist and multi-instrumentalist.
